It does not make sense to ask what solvent would be more soluble. Solutes are soluble in solvents. In any event, carbon tetrachloride is a very potent solvent of non-polar chemicals.

To make a saturated solution of benzoic acid using benzene as the solvent how much is need of each?

I can't find a number, but I found this: Benzoic acid is slightly soluble in water, soluble in ethanol, very slightly soluble in benzene and acetone. (see link on the left under Web Links) This implies not very much benzoic acid will dissolve in benzene. This other site (the MSDS for benzoic acid) says this: SOLVENT SOLUBILITY: Soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform, acetone, carbon disulfide, oil of turpentine, carbon tetrachloride, fixed and volatile oils; slightly soluble in petroleum ether, hexane. This does make it sound fairly soluble! Hard to say which is right. This can easily be determined by experiment however!


How would eugenol react with bromine in carbon tetrachloride?

Eugenol would undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution with bromine in carbon tetrachloride. The bromine would replace a hydrogen atom on the benzene ring of eugenol, resulting in the formation of a brominated eugenol derivative.


How many grams of carbon tetrachloride can be produced from reacting 709.0 grams of chlorine with excess methane?

The balanced equation for the reaction is: CH₄ + 4Cl₂ → CCl₄ + 4HCl Using the stoichiometry of the reaction, one mole of chlorine (Cl₂) produces one mole of carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄). Since the molar mass of Cl₂ is 70.91 g/mol and that of CCl₄ is 153.82 g/mol, 709.0 grams of chlorine would produce 709.0 grams of carbon tetrachloride.


What is the compound for the formula SiCl4?

Silicon tetrachloride is the name of the compound SiCl4.


What is the product when dissolve benzoic acid in dichloromethane and add sodium hydroxide?

The solvent (if it is entirely a solvent, as it is in this case) makes no difference. In theory, you would get sodium benzoate, but getting sodium hydroxide to react in a system including an organic solvent will not be easy as it is barely soluble. Vigorous agitation would be required.

In which solvent 1-3 DiChloro-2Propanol is not soluble?

It is soluble in water, as would be expected (the molecule has a dipole moment), so I would guess that it would be poorly soluble in nonpolar solvents such as hexane or carbon tetrachloride. This is just a guess though...


What hapens to potassium nitrate when dissolved in carbon tetrachloride?

Potassium nitrate is not soluble in carbon tetrachloride, so it would not dissolve. Instead, the potassium nitrate would remain as solid particles suspended in the carbon tetrachloride without chemically reacting with it.


How many atoms of chloride would a molecule of carbon tetrechloride have?

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) has 4 chloride atoms.


Why carbon tetra chloride does not give white ppt with AgNO3 solution?

Carbon tetrachloride does not react with silver nitrate (AgNO3) to form a white precipitate because it lacks an available chlorine atom for the reaction to occur. The reaction between carbon tetrachloride and silver nitrate would require the replacement of the chlorine atom by the silver ion from silver nitrate, but this reaction does not happen due to the unreactive nature of carbon tetrachloride.


What would happen if is not soluble in the solvent?

If a solute is not soluble in a particular solvent, it will not dissolve and will remain as a separate phase in the solvent. This can result in the formation of a suspension or precipitate, depending on the nature of the solute and solvent.


What type of intermolecular forces would you expect to find in a pure liquid sample of carbon tetrachloride?

In a pure liquid sample of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), you would expect to find London dispersion forces. Carbon tetrachloride is a nonpolar molecule, so it does not have dipole-dipole or hydrogen bonding interactions.


What is the percent chlorine in carbon tetrachloride?

Carbon tetrachloride is composed of one carbon atom and four chlorine atoms. To calculate the percent of chlorine in carbon tetrachloride, you would divide the molar mass of chlorine by the molar mass of the compound and multiply by 100. In this case, the percent of chlorine in carbon tetrachloride is approximately 82.3%.

What is the volume that 35.2 g of carbon tetrachloride will occupy if it has a density of 1.00gml?

The volume of carbon tetrachloride can be calculated using the formula: Volume = Mass / Density. So, the volume of 35.2 g of carbon tetrachloride with a density of 1.00 g/ml would be 35.2 ml.


What are examples of soluble solids?

Example of a soluble substance would be sugar and salt, both are easily soluble in the universal solvent, water


How many atoms are there in three carbon tetrachloride molecules?

There are 15 atoms in three carbon tetrachloride molecules. Each carbon tetrachloride molecule has one carbon atom and four chlorine atoms. Multiplying 5 atoms per molecule by 3 molecules gives a total of 15 atoms.


What is an inert solvent ... Also what would a inert solvent do like CCL4 treated with Br2?

Inert solvent is a solvent that does not react with your reaction system. means, it does not interfere between your reactants . . .Inert solvent like CCL4 does not do anything to Bromine, e.g. Bromine water, which is red-brown in colour, when added to CCL4 , its colour remains same.
